I certainly read that survey question wrong. The question actually was "Do you have access to a CAR?

But yes, I have access to a cat, two, in fact. And a car. Good morning myLot. I will go ride the bus, do some errands in Marion, and have coffee with my friend Jane, in a new cafe. I hope any of you who want to have access to a cat.

There are so many times I've read sentences wrong and have had to read them again because they made no sense. Cat and Car are so close it's easy to get them mixed up. Have fun with your friend today in Marion.

@GardenGerty It just came to me when I looked at him. I guess he transmitted it to me.

Having access to a cat is very warming. Much more interesting than a car, in fact.

Riding a bus and going to a cafe sounds like fun. I wonder when I will feel comfortable enough to do that?

The "bus" is actually a van, for school students. My friend and I have been going through a drive through and then sitting in our own cars to visit, but it is too cold for that now. This is a new cafe and was not crowded at all.

I don't really have access to a cat.

I'd like another cat one day. Maybe when we stop traipsing around.

Or get a young one and train it to traipse with you.

@GardenGerty That's been done before too. This one is called 'Chilli' and it's been travelling since it was a kitten. We've also seen a couple of other cats on leads in caravan parks.

That made me smile. Yes I guess I do have access to a couple of cats, although they are not mine. But then does anyone really 'own' a cat?

No, they decide who they want as their sovereign subjects.

@GardenGerty I love mine but need batteries and the one that used to take care of me left the place and we were in lockdown and not sure if they are there or not so do not take my scooter out because I have two hills I have to climb in order to get home.

Given a choice I prefer access to a cat. We did practice good social distance and the cafe was not busy.
